My Émonda






My 2019 Trek Émonda SLR frame, replacing an identical damaged frame under warranty (thanks, Trek). Components were transferred over the damaged bike. I've made a few changes, principally switching out the wheelset (which was nice but not particularly aero and not particularly lightweight). The new wheels make me think I can pedal faster, even if I can't. With the wheels and a few changes of components, the weight of the bike is 6.7 kg (slightly under 15 pounds). H1 geometry. I went with the Bontrager direct mount brakes.

I can tell that it's a lightweight bike when I carry it up two steps onto my front porch after a ride. Other times, not so much. ;-)

I went with the Project One option, which let me choose the color I wanted and minimal decals in a classic Trek font.
